Sean Lennon Opens up on Working With James McCartney on “Primrose Hill.”
“Primrose Hill” gained high praise from fans. Grateful for the response, Sean recently sat down with 6 Music to discuss working with James on the song.
He said, “It actually happened quite some time ago, so I wasn’t sure if the song was going to come out or not. He had made another record since we’d worked on that song. And so I was very surprised when he gave me a text and said ‘Hey, can we put Primrose Hill out?’ and I was like ‘Well, it’s about time I was hoping you would put it out!’ So yeah, I was thrilled you know.”
Sean said: “I was just at his flat in London and he was telling me about a girl he had a crush on, and he was sort of writing a song about it and he kind of wanted me to help him. And so all I really did was say ‘Well hey, where did you guys go on your first date?’ and he was like ‘Well we went and had a picnic on Primrose Hill and we sat on Primrose Hill’ and I said alright and I just wrote that down ‘we sat on Primrose Hill’, ‘Next what happened next?’ and I just sort of took a dictation really of him telling me the story about his memories and his feelings.”
Sean would ever collaborate with the other kids from the Beatles?
Although open to the idea, he said “That seems like it would take a lot more planning than we’re probably able to deal with. But we all like each other and we’re all friends and I do support what they do. I mean I love Zac’s new band Mantra of the Cosmos, it’s really cool. It’s really cool, what I’ve heard so far.”
